Gemma Correll is a freelance illustrator, coffee drinker and sometime ukelele player, based in deepest, darkest Norwich. When she is not drawing podgy little characters annotated with mildly amusing phrases, she enjoys playing songs from Broadway musicals on her keyboard (yes, she is stuck in the 90s) and taking her pug, Mr Norman Pickles, for midnight walks. Gemma has exhibited her work in galleries and shop windows around the world and her artwork has been reproduced on everything from placemats to T-shirts to umbrellas. She has also had her work published in various books, annuals and magazines.Gemma?s artwork is has been described as ?the perfect combination of ugly and cute?, which she hopes is a compliment. Gemma dreams of one day owning a house somewhere warm, with a mezzanine, pretty curtains and space for several small pudgy dogs and a few fluffy kitties.
